MMSunday: Lace Nails: Freehand

Today is Sunday, which means I'll be showing you another MMS manicure.

This week's theme is lace and here's what I came up with.

Pozdrav lipi moji!

Danas je nedilja što znači da ću Vam pokazat još jednu MMS manikuru.

Ovotjedna tema je čipka i evo šta san ja napravila.

What I used:

Eveline 8in1 base coat

CATRICE 'Luxury Nudes' soft matt, 02 Fresh Love Affair

Black Acrylic Paint

Striping brush

Dotting tool

wet n wild matte top coat

Lace... Lace... Y u maik me mad? Okay, it's not the laces fault, I'm just, my nail game is weak when it comes to lace. I tried to create lace nails a few times, failed all of them. I was talking to some of my friends and I literally couldn't let lace nails make me look weak. I googled my way into this manicure. I recreated THIS MANICURE. I saw it on the first page while googling lace nails, it looked simple and it was. I did it in less than 5 minutes which angers me even more that I couldn't think of this myself, but okay.

The manicure itself wasn't the thing that surprised me in a negative way. This Catrice polish did that.

On my nails I have 2 extremely patchy coats and 2 sponged on coats - that's why they look a bit textured. I had this polish in mind for this manicure as soon as I saw the theme, and it was going on my nails no matter what. I made this manicure a couple of days ago and that day just wasn't my day. I had a few failed manicure attempts already which made me feel very agitated and this polish just, just. I hate to get upset over polishes because omg can it be more #firstworldproblems? The first coat was extremely patchy, which sort of happens with matte polishes. The second coat wasn't better so I was being optimistic and said the 3rd coat will fix it. It didn't fix anything... at all. There were some bare places on my nails and those patches stayed bare after the 3rd coat, while those places that got covered with polish on the first coat got lumpy on the 3rd one. I'll try to experiment with this polish some more like using it over a matter base should help, but not as soon as I'd like because of all the things I got in plan. I won't give up on Catrice because it's one of my favorite brands ever but how things are now, this could end up in the shittiest things I tried in this year. Do not recommend.

This week's MMS just wasn't made for me, I knew that as soon as I saw the theme but I'm glad I didn't let myself pass it up. It's all about experimenting and learning something new and that's why I joined this group in the first place. I hope all the other girls had much fun with creating their designs <3
